Serenity² - Fray101! 107.2FM by PsychicRiver

Very belated response TWG:

I would have told you to make sweet potato pie anyway, because you're right. Everyone loves Sweet potato pie.

But now that Spinny mentioned SP fries, now I'm craving them. I also like SP chips (crisps). You get that whole sweet and salty thing at once. Yummers.

PR-did you ever figure out what soul food is? I think people would describe it as "black" southern cooking. Collard greens, corn bread, pork, black eyed peas, fried chicken, anything sweet potato, gallons of sweet tea. That kind of stuff.

i was right in some sense

she was talking about them in past tense, like she already knew they were dead, which of course she did

...except, in theory, at the time she didn't... according to the decision of the jury at least. She supposedly only realised she was covering for an actual murderer (rather than protecting someone the police would hound unfairly, which is what her boyfriend had told her) once the police got to questioning her.

Without access to all the information and evidence the jury had none of us can really determine what she knew or didn't know.

...

That was all very reasonable there, wasn't it?

She knew something... can't say what without the ability to read her mind. That's the only way to be sure.

Hey peeps! *waves madly*

Now that there are lots of you here, I really need some info. Sorry to move this back on-topic again for a moment (I promise to make up for it with really good movie puzzles, as I've played versions of this game before), but...

Has been nail-biting tension over here for the past few days as you lot waved your flashy Serenity2 tickets about. Basically I was a bit worried because I bought my ticket online late into the game, and though I was given an order id, my online banking statement showed that my credit card hadn't been debited yet even after 2 weeks (as by usual online shopping logic, missing money = secured ticket), and they weren't responding to my gazillion e-mails.

Anyway had to make an international call, but it was worth it as they confirmed that my tickets were posted yesterday. Hooray. My ticket numbers like 500+ something, but that's ok as I'm attending my first con! Woot.

So I'm calling to book my hotel room at the Raddison tomorrow, and am also trying to get some cheap flights down from Edinburgh. So my question is to all you folks who have tickets and event booklets: what time do things kick off on the Friday? There are painfully early morning flights from Edinburgh down, and not so painful ones later on that day, so I'm just trying to get an answer before prices shoot up...

Unless of course someone is like... driving down from Scotland. *bats manly eyelids*

Aureliano i wouldn't worry about it. My debit card didn't get debited for about a month i think. It took a long time, the time between when i ordered and when it was finally taken off. I wouldn't worry. I'm sure your ticket will come through.

oh and according to the leaflet thingie that came with my ticket, apparently things kick off in the evening, about 5-ish on friday. registration and what nots, but i think a lot of here are heading there about 1-ish, am i right?

Is yours as straight-forward as it seems, or do you have some diabolically cunning and archaic movie from the 70s, that's more cunning than a rather cunning fox that's just graduated from cunning university with a degree in cunning?

Cheers Carol! That means I'll just catch a later morning flight, and be there a few hours before to check into my room. Yay. So excited, and it's still months away.
